Chen Mo's lips twitched slightly.
Recalling the bewildering scene from last time, he shook his head and said, "You stay here for now, don't go out. I'll go lead Her Majesty away."
With that, he got up and walked out of the bathroom.

Elsewhere, the Empress had just stepped through the door when she bumped into a strong chest.

The Empress was startled.
How could a man appear in the Xuanqing Pool?
She quickly took two steps back, looked up, and seeing the handsome face, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then she asked in confusion, "Chen Mo, what are you doing here?"
Chen Mo naturally replied, "I've finished the work at the Imperial College and came into the palace to report to Her Majesty. Since I just finished a spar, I thought I'd come here to take a bath first…"
The Empress frowned and said, "You came to Xuanqing Pool to bathe? This is where I bathe. How could you…"
As she spoke, she suddenly realized.
